Firefox for Android Support Forum

Hi All,

I really hope someone more clever than me can help me figure this one out as it is being a real deal breaker. I am a long time FFox user and for the longest time I have just dismissed this behaviour as a network issue or something not related to the browser itself. Every now and again, when typing in a new url, Firefox simply stalls and does not connect. It does not matter what URL it is and if I close that tab and open a new one (or reuse an already opened one). The browser stubbornly is stuck in "loading" mode but in fact it is doing nothing. Sometimes closing the session (by swiping the browser up off the screen)and reopening firefox works, sometimes not so much, however, every time if I open a private window, i can access the typed URL 100% of the time. This finding tells me without any doubt that the problem is with Firefox and I imagine there is a fairly simple explanation and fix as for a top browser that is simply not acceptable. My wanderings on reddit unfortunately did not yield any positive result with people just accepting it as "quirk". My ff is up to date (114.2.0) and is running on a Samsung s21.

Thanks so much for any way out of this madness.,

I given feedback on firefox in google appstore and developer told me to further explanation what is happening. Firefox sometimes, becomes unresponsive for specific sites ... It starts loading them, but it get stuck in 1/4 of loading bar. It happens early morning most of the times which is unusual, right after I wake up. Site that it happens the most is 9gag.com. However, sometimes it happens to google search itself. What is funny when I use google search to access 9gag it fixes the problem, at least 33% of time, force stopping Firefox and cleaning cache helps additional 33% of time. Sometimes restart of phone is only thing that fixes the issue. My phone is xiaomy redminote5 with lineage 18.1 which is android 11. I use addons ublock and privacy bagger. If you message me where to find log in android file system I will share it ;) Sorry for wasting you time if it is already known issue. Thanks.

It happen since yesterday. When I open any tabs I choose in the app, it doesn't load, and only shows a blank grey page. I can't even refresh these pages. In fact, on every tab I go to, the results will be the same. Is this a bug? If so, please solve it.

Within the last couple days at least, firefox just does not load any sites on the phone. They simply show an empty page. Chrome will load the same site under the same network conditions.

Hi,

I'm not really sure when this problem started, but since yesterday (05/07) I noticed that I am unable to open any website, even the google.com main site is not opening using Firefox for Android.

I use it as my default browser, so I really would like to be able to use it again as before.

I haven't tried to remove and reinstall it, but I will do it, just to be sure.

Thanks and regards, Hugo

So I had the update to this build: 114.2.0 (Build #2015957435), f986bd245f+ GV: 114.0.2-20230619081400 AS: 114.1

2 days ago and now nothing will load at all I reinstalled and tried to get in about:config but that also won't load. I am on a OnePlus Nord running Android version 11, oxygen OS 11.1.10.10.AC01BA

I'm on Android 11, Oxygen 11.0.13.BE.89BA

Whenever I open up Firefox and enter a website or a google search nothing happens.

No loading screen, no crash, just nothing.

Uninstalling it and reinstalling it works once, but then the second time I open Firefox I'm back to the same issue.

Google Chrome works just fine, and I'm not having any issues related to data or wifi.

I don't know what's going on. All of the sudden, I just get a slash the the little "person" symbol to the far left of the search bar for every single tab and can't is the app at all, no matter what website I try to search. What is going on?

Periodically, the following bug occurs on different phones. I also found it in complaints on google play and I will take the text from there (you do not give a solution to the problem), but I will provide my screenshots. This is not the first time this issue has occurred, on various phones in my family. "I tried using it again, and EVERY website I try to access doesn't load. It just shows a gray screen and the lock in the URL bar is in the "connection is not secure" graphic. I can't even access about :config because it's also just a gray screen.HOWEVER, every other browser on my phone works." It helps to solve problems only by completely deleting all firefox files and then setting it up from scratch. It is unpleasant. On screenshots: the endless loading of the add-ons section and the display of any site.

Firefox (latest version) on Android is not working. The app starts but searches don't load at all. It already happened once, reinstalled and it worked fine but I can't be forced to do it every time

Sometimes, Firefox 114.2.0 for Android suddenly stops rendering pages or loading new pages.

• Try to search: instantly stops loading, completely white tab, address bar content changes to search
• Try to enter an address directly: doesn’t load, completely white tab, address bar contents stay the same
• Force quitting and reloading doesn’t change anything
• Clearing cache doesn’t change anything
• Clearing data fixes the problem, at the cost of losing all home-screen customization, extensions, and search engine customization, which aren’t synced with the Firefox account

I'm having trouble with Firefox on my mobile device. It was working fine yesterday but won't access the internet now. It runs but won't connect. All other programs on my device access it as always. Could I have unknowingly disabled it? I've made no changes to any of my settings for months. I don't want to lose the info it has acquired by reinstalling. Can you please help?

as subject, firefox is useless on my new Android 10 tablet now as it displays blank page for most sites, am using the lastest android version.

Posting this from my desktop computer.

Firefox on my android phone (OnePlus Nord N200) won't load any web pages and there is a red line across the lock icon in the address. This is happening to any web page I try to open. I am not getting any error messages and the browser home screen shows my open tabs. When I click on them (or if I do a new search) all I get is a blank page and the address with the red line across the lock. No problem with Chrome, nor with Firefox on other mobile devices.
